Dear friends of Kristen,
I am sorry to inform you that my good friend and collaborator
Kristen Nygaard suddenly died the night before Saturday.
Kristen was very active to the last minute and as you may know
he had just got funding for his new ambitious COOL-project.
Some of you enjoyed his great dinner speach at ECOOP in Malaga
in June. Later in June he was in Aarhus giving a keynote speach
at ITiCSE 2002 and we had the usual highly interesting discussions
with him. It is a great loss that he is no longer with us
and for me and my family he has been a close friend for almost 30
years. My wife Marianne and I had the pleasure of spending some good
days with Johanna and Kristen in Malaga. We will always remember
Kristen for his good friendship and inspiration.
--Ole Lehrmann Madsen
PS. Kristen had a large network of friends all over the world.
I have sent this mail to people I could find on recent mails
from Kristen. Please forward this mail to those who should
be informed and my apology to those I may have forgotten.
